Review summary

We really like this size ship. Pretty basic, but nice. Don’t bother buying the guest chat, didn’t work half the time. Big screen on Lido deck broken, as was kid’s pool play area.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Easy.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Service in main dining room was great. Buffet food bland.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Pools and Solarium okay. Too many kids in hot tub. Standard activities. Not a lot going on.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Shows were good. BUT, the music throughout the ship was so loud that you couldn’t have a conversation or understand what guest services was saying. Uncomfortable to the ears.

Children's Programs

No children.

Bad weather. Fog adversely affected the tour of Bay of Fundy. Too much time on the bus. Bus overheated and had to get off before reached port. Complained at shore excursion desk. Indifferent.
